  Place

  F: 73346   B(6)  W(56.5)

  F: 65565   B(4)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Courtney Barnes )

   ( T- Benjamin King )

  Not a bad first effort at 2100m and should be vying for a place today

  Consider

  

  7 Stone Street  

  F: X8827   B(3)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Cydne Evans )

  Disappointed last time but just mossed prior and we're prepared to give it another chance

  F: 63034   B(8)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Toni Davies )

   ( T- Josh Shaw )

  The 'Day's Best'

  

  7 Marie Antoinette  

  Dividend : $3.00, $1.60

  Won

  F: 9   B(6)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Lance O'Sullivan & Andrew Scott )

  Trialled a number of times over nearly a year before finishing in behind them on debut at Taupo. This stable's runners always go better second up and, with Craig Grylls up now, we don't want to be on anything else

  Main Danger

  

  2 He's Divine  

  F: 58404   B(3)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Tayla Mitchell )

   ( T- Tarissa Macdonald )

  Despite coming out of a wide gate last start, ran to the line well to be only 1 3/4 lengths away

  Next Best

  

  9 Apotheosis  

  F: 9X   B(7)  W(56.0)

   ( J- Masa Hashizume )

   ( T- Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )

  Northerner that has had only the one race, back in November, and now resumes from a spell. Sure to be more mature

  Consider

  

  4 Puddle Of Mudd  

  F: 6X   B(8)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Kavish Chowdhoory )

   ( T- Bryce Revell )

  Although it will have developed since it ran last November, it has drawn wide and needs to improve to be winning

  Longer Odds

  

  6 Dare You  

  F: 68X65   B(5)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Simon Rees )

  Won

  F: 22252   B(6)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Tayla Mitchell )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  Stephen Marsh runner that has a wide draw to overcome but, given it has run second in 5 of its 10 starts, it should be winning. Overnight scratchings add to its chances

  Main Danger

  

  3 Mischief  

  Dividend : $1.30

  Place

  F: 87544   B(2)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Suzy Gordon )

  Interested to see Craig Grylls on a Suzy Gordon trained runner. Drawn better than the other favoured runners here and that can play to its advantage

  Next Best

  

  9 Alpine Princess  

  F: 5   B(1)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Kevin & Stephen Gray )

  Trainer/jockey partnership with a good strike rate and will be much improved for its debut run 3 weeks ago. Rails draw to advantage

  Consider

  

  11 Muchacha  

  F: 0X   B(5)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Samantha Collett )

   ( T- Cody Cole )

  Introduced to the game last November before put away to develop. Resumes from a stable that has them ready fresh up

   ( J- Madan Singh )

  F: 32   B(8)  W(57.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Robbie Patterson )

  Craig Grylls had 5 winners here a few months back and he could be set up for a repeat today. This 3yo is third up today and you've got to like what it has shown so far

  Main Danger

  Dividend : $5.30, $1.60

  Won

  F: 5   B(1)  W(55.5)

  Dividend : $1.80

  Place

  F: 236   B(6)  W(57.5)

  5 Dorothea  

  F: X4424   B(5)  W(55.5)

• Top Pick

  

  4 The Black Prince  

  F: 36   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kelly Myers )

   ( T- Allan Sharrock )

  Won a couple of trials nicely prior to race day so the ability is there, and ran well on debut. A bit disappointing last time but trainer has scratched his other runner in the race and that's a good sign

  Main Danger

  

  9 Super Eclipse  

  F: 359X5   B(10)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Masa Hashizume )

   ( T- Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )

  Australian import that was only a length away on its NZ debut 3 weeks ago. Will be fitter today and has found a good winning opportunity

  Next Best

  

  1 Mighty Macca  

  F: 2   B(6)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Chris Dell )

   ( T- Peter Lock )

  Although it won a trial prior, it exceeded expectations on debut and the one that beat it looks to have good potential. Will be thereabouts

  Consider

  

  3 Derryman  

  F: 28X7X   B(13)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Jack Taplin )

   ( T- Allan Sharrock )

  This is worth a closer look, as its having only its second run in 14 months, and its last start was 8 months ago. Astute trainer and it could surprise

  Longer Odds

  7 Dahmers Kiss  

  F: 4X006   B(7)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Pam Gerard )

  At massive odds last time but it defied them when finishing just 4 lengths away in a good field up north. Bruno has being riding well for this stable too

  4 The Trendsetter  

  F: 71365   B(3)  W(58.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Stephen Marsh )

  This Stephen Marsh trained 4yo mare does look to have a bit more ability than the field its up against here. He has turned to Craig Grylls today and he'll add considerably to its chances

  Main Danger

  

  7 Madame Kiwi  

  Dividend : $2.90

  Place

  F: 74618   B(7)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Amber Riddell )

   ( T- Debbie Sweeney )

  Won here two back when getting today's track conditions. That was over 1600m and it now steps up to 2100m and should suit

  Next Best

  

  1 Legend Of Kings  

  F: 0563X   B(4)  W(59.0)

   ( J- Hayley Hassman )

   ( T- Mark Walker & Sam Bergerson )

  Another Australian import and they're proving to have a good strike rate when crossing the Tasman. This stable will have it well prepared for its NZ debut

  Consider

  

  2 Novak  

  F: 50969   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Elen Nicholas )

   ( T- Clinton Isdale )

  Don't underestimate this one's chances as it was only 4 1/2 lengths away in an Open two back and has good ability on its day

  Longer Odds

  

  3 Starpello  

  F: 20261   B(5)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Lisa Latta )

  Surprise winner last time and that could have been attributable to two things; its first race at 2100m and the Good track conditions. Both those apply today so we might find out

  8 Richemont  

  F: 1   B(11)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Shane Crawford )

  Craig Grylls gets the leg up again on this promising 4yo mare, a winner by nearly 6 lengths on debut 3 weeks ago. When Grylls asked it to go last time, it showed an impressive turn of foot and the extra distance here will be just perfect

  Main Danger

  

  10 London  

  Dividend : $6.60, $2.20

  Won

  F: 41   B(3)  W(56.5)

   ( J- Bruno Queiroz )

   ( T- Kevin & Stephen Gray )

  After its commanding win at Whanganui last time, it clearly looks progressive and the obvious danger here today. Inside draw and Bruno is riding at the top of his game right now

  Dividend : $2.70

  Place

  F: 6166X   B(6)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Kate Hercock )

   ( T- Mike Breslin )

  A winner once in four starts, it's now resuming after last running in a conditions race last December. Has been backed down from an opening $13 so must have been going well at home

  Consider

  

  3 Spandeedo  

  F: 44656   B(9)  W(58.5)

   ( J- Elen Nicholas )

   ( T- Gavin Sharrock )

  Clearly well thought of as it was running in 3yo Stakes races late last year. Will be better for recent run

  12 We Found Love  

  F: 63255   B(2)  W(55.5)

   ( J- Joe Nishizuka )

   ( T- Lauren Brennan )

  Down from the north after running well at Te Aroha 3 weeks ago and is better than a 1 time winner. That's evidenced by its 6 seconds and 3 thirds on its CV. Drawn nicely

  7 Sperlari  

  F: 49314   B(8)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Craig Grylls )

   ( T- Cody Cole )

  A winner in the CD two back when brought down by Cody Cole, this 4yo mare wasn't far away at Ellerslie, despite coming out of gate 12. And the winner that day looks very exciting. Craig Grylls rides

  Main Danger

  

  4 Scelta Di Elena  

  F: 05635   B(1)  W(57.0)

   ( J- Jim Chung )

  6 Fosse  

  F: 41886   B(9)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Masa Hashizume )

   ( T- Steven Ramsay & Julia Ritchie )

  Ran consistently well last campaign and might have won more than just the one race, but for getting back early. Resuming run will have sharpened it up just nicely

  Consider

  

  5 Bonifleur  

  F: 4X318   B(2)  W(54.5)

   ( J- Tayla Mitchell )
